Hey everyone,

I was just looking through the pig section and I'd like to mention a great resource for you. I did an interview with Walter Jeffries, who raises pastured pigs in Vermont on pasture using minimal inputs. Some of his methods are very innovative and I think all pig lovers like us would appreciate! You can find the interview here: http://agriculturalinsights.com/top-interviews/

Let me know what you think!

I couldn't access your link (it's usually me!), but have been reading a lot of his blogs. We have quite a few members here who are pasturing their pigs and exploring different feeding programs. Welcome to BYH--have seen some of your other posts and am looking forward to reading more!

My difficulty is that I can look at someone else's grazing systems and it all makes perfect sense, but I struggle to adapt to our home place--it's a work in progress!
